hasty perusal of your manuscript has brought to my a<tftentIon. 
I' intend to have the whole thing transcribed and T shall 
then have time to go over it in detail.' I know we wont agbee 
on many things, but it rill be amusing' to thrash out our 
opinions as we go along. It would be queer,' indeed, if re 
failed to profit from a frank exchange of our views. 
You might take up the points raised in this letter and let 
m® have a few lines from you vith regard to them. 
Just at present I have been working on myecrrhizs in our 
native orchids and I expect to have several papers ready be¬ 
fore the end of the winter.(If you can pick up a copy of 
Reissek's ifndophyten der Pf 1 atizenzsll e in any of the second 
hand bookshops I would like to add work to my library.)

studies and J rill *ork these genera for the Folia if you 
have no prior claim to they,. T have been much interested in 
the winter stages of ^plectrum. I had several fine specimens 
brought in that were collected in December. The leaves are ver} 
beautiful in the fre$feh condition. They ought to make inter¬ 
esting subjects for anatomical st«dies.
